FIELD: chemistry.
SUBSTANCE: described is catalyst for obtaining alkylene oxide by alkene epoxidation in steam phase, which contains applied by impregnation silver and at least one promoter on burnt heatproof solid carrier, and said carrier contains quantity of zirconium component, which is present in carrier mainly as zirconium silicate, and said heatproof carrier, with the exception of zirconium component at least on 95% by weight consists of aluminium alpha-oxide. Also described is method of said catalyst obtaining which includes: a) mixing of zirconium component, which is mainly present as zirconium silicate, with initial materials of carrier, which include aluminium oxide; b) burning of initial materials of carrier with added zirconium component at temperature less than 1540°C with formation of carrier, which includes aluminium alpha-oxide, where carrier includes zirconium component, present mainly as zirconium silicate; c) further deposition of silver and at least one promoter on carrier. In addition, described is method of catalyst application for alkyl oxide obtaining.
EFFECT: improvement of catalyst stability and activity.
